For example, I tried this link http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2011/12/msg00561.html which suggests trying the following steps: apt-get update apt-get install gnome apt-get -f install (had to do that about three times before full success) apt-get -f dist-upgrade
However, the above solution fails on the second step (install gnome) with the following error: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: python-apt : Breaks: python-software-properties (< 0.70.debian-1+) but 0.60.debian-3 is to be installed Breaks: update-notifier (< 0.99.3debian9) but 0.99.3debian8 is to be installed E: Broken packages -- View this message in context: http://debian.2.n7.nabble.com/Upgrading-from-squeeze-to-wheezy-fails-with-error-tp2968556p2968975.html Sent from the Debian User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
